Any client of his can count themselves lucky to have such an attorney on their side

I hired Henry Paul to assist with me with an attorney ethics issue. Mr. Paul explained things, making sure I had a clear understanding, his ability to maintain confidential client information, honesty and integrity in large and small situations and his abilities as a team player are all qualities tha...t may make him stand out among the competition. He is one of a vanishing breed of attorneys who combine legal acumen with empathy and concern for his clients. Mr. Paul is an asset to the legal community. Any client of his can count themselves lucky to have such an attorney on their side.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
